Hello!

Well I guess I can't leave anything alone! Just purchased a 2008 B&W coupe a few weeks ago. I love the ride but am concerned about the wheel gap issue.... Mainly street driving on good roads here in MI, some 1/4 pulls once in a great while and a few private track days a year.

I was planning on throwing on lowering caps and Eibachs via Jon B. Then I seen the gentleman on here posting up about his suspension systems (Steve I believe GTSR-1).... I don't want to throw down the serious coin's right now for KW, or Moton's and I just bought the car but whats the suggestions out there?

Springs and caps I figure $400 or so.

Steve's full setup $1700 or so (I may be off here just going by my belated memory)

Motons etc. $3k+???

Also will this void my warranty????

All help is great!

-Tim

IMO you will be upgrading later if you don't do the MCS shocks now. If you really can't swing it understand, then just go with Eibach caps and springs it will save you $$$ over the other options until you can do it right.

Honestly just wait till you find a set of used Motons or save the extra money for MCS. You will thanks me later.

Like everyone said, save for the Motons or penskes! And don't worry about the warranty, your window regulators will still be covered!
